The rule among physicians is that children should never receive opiates in the smallest doses for more than a day at a time, and only then if unavoidable. "The adminiatration of Anodynes, Drops, Cordials, Soothing Syrups and other narcotics to children by any but a physician cannot be too strongly decried, and the druggist should not be a party to it.
